Hi, my name is Renee and I am writing to tell you about the Cispus Fund and ask for your support. Several whitewater enthusiasts have come together to bring this opportunity to you.

• We are holding our second fundraising campaign and are currently taking T-shirt orders. Mugs, magnets and decals are available too. Email CIPSUSFUND1@gmail.com

In July 2019, we commissioned local surf artist, Todd Fischer, to design a graphic of a kayak surfer at Paul’s Playpen on the lower CIspus River. It’s this cool, custom watercolor that we’d like to share with you. When you buy merchandise with this artwork, you are supporting the lower CIspus River access issue, and, local, micro businesses. Profits help pay for legal and document reproduction, and advertising and general promotion to increase awareness of this issue. No individual profits from this fundraiser.

We raised about $1,000 from the first campaign winter 2019/2020, distributed 50 T-shirts, 20 mugs and we recently sent fridge magnets to 70 people. Magnets went out to 2019 trip participants, Lewis County PUD and public agency representatives and folks who are active in supporting this river access issue. When you see our graphic, you know that Cispus Fund money is working for the thirty-year-old, lower Cispus River, access issue.

Please consider supporting this cause by purchasing T-shirts, mugs and other merchandise today.
